Landlord and Tenant Lawyers in Indian Harbour Beach

How a local LegalMatch Indian Harbour Beach landlord attorney can help you:

Landlord and Tenant Law in Florida

The relationship between a landlord and tenant in Indian Harbour Beach, Florida can occasionally be a touchy one. Landlords and tenants are not always clear on their respective rights and obligations.

Landlords and tenants have to navigate a web of legal rights and commitments. It's essential that the parties to a landlord/tenant relationship know what obligations they have to one another.

Landlord's Rights in Indian Harbour Beach, FL

The most important and most apparent right that a landlord has is the right to timely payment of rent from the tenant. This, of course, means that the tenant has a duty to pay rent.

Landlords also have a right to be free from damage to the rented unit. Tenants are expected not to damage their dwellings, intentionally or negligently. Landlords can deduct the cost of repairs from the tenant's security deposit. In general, tenants are not accountable for damage resulting from ordinary wear and tear.

Tenant's Rights in Indian Harbour Beach, FL

The most basic right of a tenant is the right to a living space that's fit for human habitation. This is, after all, what they're paying the landlord to present. Landlords in Indian Harbour Beach, Florida are under a legal duty to make sure that their apartments are habitable. There are numerous factors that are considered in deciding if a unit is habitable or not, but, generally, a unit will not be deemed habitable if it lacks any of the following: running water, electricity, heat, and protection from the elements (such as proper insulation, and windows that close).

Additionally, tenants are entitled to common areas which are reasonably safe and clean, and free of physical obstacles. Areas such as lobbies, hallways, stairwells, and fire escapes must comply with the building codes of Indian Harbour Beach, Florida. Additionally, any other unreasonable safety hazard, even if it doesn't violate a specific provision of a building code, can create liability for the landlord if it injures a tenant.

Under the laws of Florida, and the United States, discrimination in housing on the basis of race, religion, or gender is strictly prohibited. Additionally, under the Americans with Disabilities Act, landlords must not discriminate against renters on the basis of any physical disability. They also have to authorize the renter to make reasonable modifications to their apartment, to make it more accessible. Generally, landlords are only required to allow relatively minor and reversible modifications, and tenants cannot compel them to remodel the building, for example. Also, once the tenant leaves, the landlord can bill the tenant for the costs of restoring the apartment to its original condition.

Lastly, tenants in most states have a right to be free from unfair eviction. Typically, lease agreements last for a set period of time, and both parties are bound by that contract. Landlords cannot arbitrarily evict clients while the lease is still in effect.

Can a Indian Harbour Beach, Florida Landlord/Tenant Lawyer Help?

Tenants and landlords always want to avoid getting into any serious disputes - these disputes interfere with the tenant's living arrangement, and the landlord's business. In short, they help nobody. While a good Indian Harbour Beach, Florida attorney can definately help his or her client prevail in such a dispute, they may be more essential for their ability to help prevent such disputes from escalating in the first place.

02/08/2008Mr. Tom M. was very clear with his explanations of the legal terms, and in the presentation of our options. My mother and I felt that he was genuinely interested in every detailed that we presented during our first meeting. His firm yet friendly manner of dealing with the situation earned our trust. We are confident that he will win the case, given his previous success. In addition, his compassion and understanding helped my mother gain some hope during this difficult time in her life, while she continues to fight cancer. We are very satisfied with Mr. M. as the attorney taking care of this case.

08/27/2011Mr. A. was my problem solver, working to deflect the petty and frivolous actions of the problem-creator lawyer hired by my ex. I'd asked him to find a way to return the process to the original tone and agreement. Mr. A. created and used an opportunity to turn around what had been a nasty attack, and got the process moving forward to a constructive, successful resolution. Bless him for his patience with me.

09/16/2009Gregory A. went far and beyond being a lawyer. I have never been in trouble with the law before - needless to say I was concerned and scared about the unknown. He took time out of his schedule to reassure me that everything was going to be alright. Exactly what he said would happen, did. He supported me during the time before my case to get my driver's license (and I did). . . No one who, just considered me as a client would of done this. He represented me with professionalism, he was personable, he is a people person and was very easy to talk with. He didn't even mind when I would get worried and send him emails at 4:00 in the mornings. Thanks Greg for for everything

Through his efforts I was able to resolve my issues concerning child support and custody without lengthy hearings which kept legal costs to a minimum. I highly recommended using Greg by anyone needing a good and honest lawyer ! I would surely use him again if needed in the future.

Clear precise and to the point unless you want to talk football with this fine upstanding gentleman. A guaranteed attorney to give you his absolute best and work with you at all costs (financially too which is rare indeed in the world of attorneys) to see it through to the end. Pick him if you want your true moneys worth and then some.

10/11/2008Mr. A. is "hands-down" a brilliant attorney. He understood my needs and addressed them with supreme intellect and sound judgement. When Opposing counsel became beligerent, Mr. A. stood his ground and fought profoundly for what was in the best interest of his client. Mr. A. is well educated in many areas of the law and I will look to him for future disputes and/or advice.

He was very good with responding to concerns and responded in a timely way to any and all communication. I highly recommend him. If you really want someone who puts you at ease and keeps you informed, then he is a great professional for that reason. I would use him for anything else I needed legally that is within his specialty.

06/08/2007Mr. A. was excellent in all phases of our legal relationship. He was most understanding of my plight and came up with a perfect strategy to make sure my daughter was financially secure, but on the other hand, her mother was not able to take unfair advantage of me. He resolved my financial problem with the child enforcement agency, a situation in which they were taking money from me inappropriately. He made me feel secure and comfortable that this would be resolved in a fair and equitable manner. I would definitely retain Mr. A. again, and if any of my friends in that area need a lawyer would not hesitate to recommend him. Make sure you keep him as an attorney to be recommended through your service, because he definitely makes you look very good.

09/07/2007Mr. D. is friendly and knowledgeable. Evening phone consult was arranged. I wasn’t available until 9:30 and he made the time.
Very comfortable speaking to him. Felt able to address all my concerns. At-ease asking everything on my mind without fear of sounding trivial. Some was, but he showed interest and answered all of my questions. Even when I asked more than once!
Provided tools to move forward in a manner that will protect my job. Had I not called, I would have taken steps (while conforming to company policy) that may very well have eliminated chances of taking future legal action should I be terminated.

08/01/2007I had hoped to evaluate this lawyer upon conclusion of our business dealings and would therefore have had a better understanding of him and how he operates. But your insistence upon an "immediate" response from me in this regard precludes any hope of doing this. My evaluation is therefore based upon a very short period of time in my relations with him for me to be objective and focus upon specific details. In the short time that I have known and worked with him, he has been exemplary, objective in his approach, logical, knowledgeable, and a patient listener. I believe that he is capable of attaining our goal in my case.

Mr D. responded to my telephone calls and E-Mails in an extremely timely fashion. He speaks in a language that is clear and understandable to the lay person.I highly recommend Mr D. without reservation. I will continue to retain Mr D. as my attorney for all legal matters.
